Pupils of two grammar schools on the Island scooped prizes when they took part in a lesson-learning week held by an international firm this year.

Students at King William's College and Ramsey Grammar School were given important lessons in the Money Skills For Schools Week by Old Mutual International.

As well as taking in valuable knowledge on a wide range of issues regarding money, some children came away with prizes like a new iPad and money vouchers for a brand of their choice.

The annual scheme first held in 2015 is designed to teach and guide younger generations on important topics like money and a wide range of issues.
